Mrs. Langtry S beauty and the grace
full dignity of her presence stand her in
good stead in her impersonation Of Lady
Clancarty. Now and then she rises for
a moment to real dramatic power-in
the scene wheIe she implores her broth
er not to betray her husband to the king,
and, best of all, in the final scene with
her husband. But. for the most part, it
takes all her beauty and grace to atone
for the amateurish crudity of her acting.
Yet, upon the whole, it may be said that
Lady Clancarty is one of her best parts
